okay so all of a sudden, while using the facebook application on the droid, i was trying to refresh the page and this error message came up
"An error has occured while fetching data [null]"
I've been trying repeatedly and it still says that. I did a batt pull thinking it would fix it, but it didnt. I'm not like a facebook fanatic but i do want to use the given application on my phone properly otherwise it would render the app useless to me.
Anybody else know wsup w/ this? or possibly a fix or reason to why this is happening. Thanks in advance.

I'm having the same problem. did you find a solution?

no i haven't yet. Waiting for someone if they have one. Is yours displaying the same error message?

Have you tried logging out then back in?

Have u tried clearing browser history I think that could fix it

Droid in Kansas... same Facebook App issue

The Facebook Droid app started failing an hour or more ago. Tried logging out & in, pulling battery, etc.

I attributed it to St. Patricks Night overload of everyone @ the bars uploading drunk pics, but web access is fine. Not sure what's going on.
I've tried deleting browser cache and history as well, but to no avail.

The News feed page begins the standard build with "Loading data..." but within 1 - 3 seconds the following error is displayed, per the original post:

"An error occurred while fetching data. [null]"

I'm getting it, too.

Though I'm also having trouble seeing anything on m.facebook too! If the pages load, IF my notifications load, I cannot reply, confirm, deny etc... the page just sits there..

Same problem here when trying to view my wall. When are they gonna start making decnt social and I'm apps?

Same problem here but only on my wall....weird.

I am also having that problem. I can get to my wall by following the link to a thread in an email message but not by clicking on the Facebook app.

Same problem here to, just my wall. News feed and notifications are updating when forced. But get that message when trying to force update my wall

i am having the same issues....died on me last night trying to post drunk pictures.

i can view the mobile and touch sites via browser, but not from the standard facebook app when selecting 'News Feed'

kinda annoying as this is my routine way of checkin fb

i tried logging out of the app (resetting my fb data) and rebooting the phone.

Mine stopped around 11:00 last night. It started working at home while on my WiFi, didn't work this morning but started working again while on 3G but stopped again. I also downloaded a new Weatherbug U/D which stopped working as well.

ya same problem here im still getting updates though cause i got that aim chat thingy that connects aim and facebook the facebook app isn't working do youi think this problem could be associated to the fact that verizon is putting out there update?

I have a time gap from 2AM - 6AM. Wonder if it has anything to do with the 2.1 update.

FB just started working again.

I'm still getting the error message on my wall

Mine hasn't yet its still down

I have the same problem. Started last night. Just the newsfeed returns the error. I was looking at alternative facebook apps this morning. The comments on "bloo" have tons of people complaining about the same thing that started with that app yesterday. I'm guessing something at facebook changed which is making it hard for 3rd party apps to access the data. I suppose I'll try FB on my iPhone after I get up off the couch and see if it is having similar issues.

Interesting... just this minute it started working again. Got my fingers crossed that it continue to work.
